I'm pumped for 2011. Where can I get a Mickey spare ball? Vis a ball or whatever?
Some people would say that I should get a Goofy one.
Beat you to it, GP.

Nice.
All I know is that the next 6 years for Nationals for me are going to be expensive.
2009 - Vegas - A couple that I bowl with is getting married while we are out there.
2010 - Reno - Always an expensive trip.
2011 - Orlando - First time that the family will be with me on a bowling trip. Going to Disney. I think that the number of family and friends going right now is about 20.
2012 - Baton Rouge - The last time it was there, my teams stayed in New Orleans and drove the 80+ miles to bowl. That is the plan again.
2013 - Reno - See above.
2014 - Orlando - My boys will be 6 and my daughter will be 9. Guessing we are all going back to do it again.

They need to get a city out there to put in a bid. I have contacted the USBC about host cities. A city has to put in a bid for it. They have to have a convention center that is available from January until August. Then, they have to have a lot of hotel space. It is quite a process. Now, there is only 1 bid due every 3 years because it being in Reno then Orlando.

Orlando might be my first trip to Nationals, if I can get a team together and can afford it. I doubt I will be able to go before then.

I kind of like the alternating Reno, Orlando, and another City set up. West, then Southeast, then somewhere else. Just need to get the third City with direct flights from Chicago. I hated the Corpus Christi trip. Chicago to San Antonio, wait 3 hours for a connecting flight or drive 100 miles. I chose to drive, since I would have rented a car anyways.
Then, I missed the return flight because of traffic troubles. It allowed me to see the Alamo, which I have never done before.

I don't think I have a direct flight anywhere except to the major hubs.
